is the oil full and in good condition , sounds to me like you might be losing high pressure oil because you run the reservoir dry and then base engine oil pump doesnt refill, next time you crank it and it shuts off , check and see if high pressure oil reservoir is empty whe its not starting, also get codes puled

in front of the fuel filter housing where you change the filter , that housing there is the reservoir that feeds the high pressure oil pump, in that housing there is a allen head plug , if you pull that plug out you should see oil, it has to be at least a half inch from the top or engine will not run, when your engine quits , pull that plug and see if any oil is in that reservoir
